    I liked most of it! Maybe adding an on/off switch to a very loaded multi plug in the kitchen.

    The atmosphere is relaxed, respectful and friendly. The hostel is clean and has got all that is needed in the kitchen, room and bathroom. In this hostel there's a good chance you'll actually meet who's there with you and share a chat or a meal. It is on a budget, but not cutting on anything, very decent and clean.

    For the price, I thought everything was acceptable. The atmosphere made my stay worth it, because you can relax.

    This is a decent, affordable, central and chilled hostel. The guests were pleasant and there is a dedicated quiet time curfew, so unlike other hostels, you can get some rest. There was fruit, eggs, tea and coffee available for free. The staff on hand were happy to help with information when asked. Overall, the place has a good atmosphere. I'd stay there again.

    Very friendly place, multiple common areas, kitchen very well equipped, free tea, coffee and biscuits. Located near to the main bus station, useful to explore the island. The guys who work there are very helpful.

    good location, good price, clean and easy to access. guests there are respectful and keep the quiet when necessary apart from the host Giulio, he is the most annoying host ever.

    It's a not a hostel problem, it's a Lanzarote thing: public transportation isn't great. So unless your renting a car I'd recommend staying nearby areas of interest so you can try to do walking-distance things. Arrecife is kinda central to the island so its convenient but it's not near any point of interest like the beaches or mountains, so it can be a bit of a problem.

    You get what you pay for. It's a simple hostel but it gets the job done, staff was super friendly and the general vibes are good. Not a party hostel so great because you get to rest properly, but still doesn't mean there was no social atmosfere, it was just more relaxed. Clean sheets and towels were provided, kitchen was fully equipped and the showers worked very well.

    The bathrooms were clean but they were a bit small. Not a problem, for the price and overall experience a minor inconvenience. On Lanzarote you won't find bigger or better at the price. The door combo code is worn out, definitely time to replace. Door to dorm won't shut properly workout slamming.

    Staff were great. Nice welcome, very friendly and helpful. Great location in city, close to everything Beds were comfortable, room good size and even though it's in city it was quiet, unusual for Spain. The place was clean, kitchen, bathrooms l, common areas Overall a great value. There are few hostels on Lanzarote. This is definitely one of the best, by far the best I stayed at. Great place to meet people! It's busy, Often full. Don't wait till last minute Thx for a wonderful stay

    The owner who organises the bookings not so much often forgetting to send people the door code so ensure you call or message in advance to get it. They also say you can check in at any time but of course Diego isn't there waiting 24/7 so you have to find your own way around when you arrive. Noise is the only problem because the rooms are around the common space and the 'windows' above the doors are just mosquito net. When I asked people to be quiet when it was late they complied however it would be nicer that I don't need to do that myself and that the staff would be more conscious and do it for you.

    Diego who is the live in person running the hostel is really nice, helpful and friendly. The hostel was always very clean. The fridge and shelves well organised with your own box to put your things. There actually was a small locker each in the rooms, maybe it's new as other reviews said there aren't. It is correct there is no aircon or fans but so far none of the other hostels I stayed in in the canary islands had them either even the expensive ones. The location is very convenient 3 mins from a main bus stop and 8 from the bus station.

    I would have loved a little more comfort: the couch in the common area was not very comfy; the beds in the dorm had no individual light, there was only one big light for the whole room; the dorm had no window, only the door...

    Staff was very friendly. The hostel was simple and clean.

    Nothing big, but the door combination lock is old and the numbers worn, it'll open but at night it's a bit tough to see.

    Diego was very friendly, good vibes and a good place to meet others. I slept well, the bed was comfortable and the hostel was quiet at night. Very close to everything, the main bus station 15 min, other buses minutes. The hostel was clean. It's a bit small and was fully booked, but the common areas and bathrooms were clean. For 22 euros i slept really well, met people and felt like I had a home in Arrecife. It's a small hostel yet in my opinion it was more than adequate and I was comfortable. If your looking for a budget place on Lanzarote this is it. When i return in a few days I'm staying there.

    Cheap and has a good vibe

    The place could use a bit of investment. - The room didn't have a window (maybe you can see it from the pictures but I didn't realize it). - No power outlet next to the beds and there was only 3 plugs for 4 people with an extension next to the door. - No bigger cabinets for the clothes. - In my bed sometimes the wifi was not working (I guess it was too far from the router) - I had a girl roommate one day and we went to explore the city together and when we got back late at night a guy was sleeping in her bed and she didn't get any notification regarding this bed swapping (and also room change). They swapped her into another room, without letting her know previouly, cause the guy could't sleep on the top of the bunk bed.

    The place was clean and easy to find, few minutes from the bus stop. - It has a good vibe but it is not too spacious (based on the pictures it seemed bigger to me than it actually is). - The staff was nice even though they didn't speak English. - There was free toiletry in the bathroom that everyone could use (shower gel, shampoo, sunscreen, etc. ) and towel was also included. - There was a small locker/cabinet for every bed, but you should bring a lock to close it. - There is a common area that you can use. - In the kitchen you have everything you need but not the the latest condition. - There is a separate fridge for the guests. - Also there was free fruits and biscuits some days. - Be aware that there is one bathroom (with 2 showers) & 2 toilets for the whole place. I liked to stay here and for solo travellers for a few days I would recommend, but if you are have snoring roommates it's hard to rest.

    Great atmosphere created by Diego and other residents. People are nice, very friendly and helpful. The common space isn't big but very well organized (I didn't have to wait in line for the bathroom, kitchen, etc.). Beds are comfortable and it's quiet at night. Very good location - next to big supermarket and close to the main bus stations also close to city centre. Great value for money.

    The maintenance is not that good. Some things could improve easily, like doors, sockets for each bed, lights, furniture (bit unconfy) etc... It looks like there is no investments in improvement things... Its basic, and for day or two not bothering.

    Staff was very friendly. Hostel was not expensive it has everything that u need for a day or two. I liked open space interrior and terrace.
